rdm_ation It is finished!!!
That gamelan essay I was working on when I last posted, that is. 1500 words in one day, then referencing took me an entire evening. But I can put it away now, and start on the next assignment.
Before I go get organised for uni and then SLEEP (yes, small things, small minds, I know) I thought I'd do a small update. My violin is going fairly well, even though I've only been able to do small amounts of practice. I went to a concert on Saturday night with pebblegosling, because my teacher from last year is in this string quartet. What I didn't realise was that the other jazz band that was playing featured none other than my current teacher. Small music world is small. I saw her from behind first, and just went 'hey... wait....' XD
It was really good to see my old teacher again, she's so bubbly and chatty and amazing, her enthusiasm for what she does is completely infectious. I want to go back and have a few lessons with her over the holidays, it's often helpful to get different opinions - and she'd keep me motivated to practice over the long break.
I can't believe I have 3 weeks of class left for the year, and 5 weeks or so in total until I'm finished. It's going to be pretty crazy for a while, here's hoping I don't go into panic mode. I nearly did in Aural today, but meh. I'll get by. I just hate that that mark counts towards my violin performance subject.
And now, a meme taken from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

① Tell you why I friended you.

③ Tell you something I like about you.
④ Tell you a memory I have of you.
⑤ Ask you something I've wanted to know about you
⑥ Tell you my favorite userpic from your list

2. All I really know about you is that you love rock-climbing XD
And take beautiful photos <3
I adore that one in the post you linked me to earlier, btw.
(bookworm =D)
I guess that covers No. 3 XD
What did you study at university/college? Does it relate to what you're doing now?
And yeah, no comment on userpics :P
Re: I think I did pretty well, considering...
Date: 2010-10-04 02:44 pm (UTC)Also I want to see your gamelan essay.
My degree is in Internet systems development, so yes, after slumming in general admin roles for a couple of years, I was promoted to a position that used my academic background.
Re: I think I did pretty well, considering...
Date: 2010-10-04 02:51 pm (UTC)Oh really? Sure thing. Message me your email or something and I'll send it through.
=D
That's great. I'm always curious about that sort of thing, especially seeing as I'm in a double degree where neither leads directly to a particular job.

5. We've been over this too many times. I never have proper questions XD

Date: 2010-10-05 12:04 am (UTC)No one, really. :D I used to think Katherine Moennig was pretty cute though:http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IgEQGFWnaUY/S7AXELc9leI/AAAAAAAAAls/RrXkmoO03f4/s1600/kate+moe.jpg
Even then it was just her character on The L Word. She was pretty masculine!
What are your plans for after you graduate?

Date: 2010-10-05 09:16 am (UTC)Yay!
Heh. Not bad looking, nope. Mine's Washington XD That singer I keep going on about. Well, obviously that question isn't to be taken seriously but I think she's sexy as all hell :P

I have many and none in particular all at the same time. I have loads of random things I'd like to do, like playing in orchestras for a big music, professional orchestra. I'll teach, and probably play at things like weddings etc until I can break into any of that :)

That's odd. I mean she is Aussie, but you'd think the official version of the clip would be ok...

That's a photo of her =D
But you should try to listen to her stuff if you can. OH I KNOW. Myspace.
